Finally checked out the Atlas Afternoon Tea ($65) which comes with a variety of sweet and savoury bites with your choice of tea / coffee / beverage. The interior is stunning and it looks like a scene from The Great Gatsby๐คต๐ป
The savoury items include:
- Brioche with truffled egg and chives
- Lobster on crystal bread
- Vol-au-vent with smoked salmon rillette and kaluga caviar
- Tomato basil arancini gougรจre with farmers bacon and comtรฉ
- Rosatella espuma with shrimp
The sweet items include:
- Scones, jam and clotted cream
- Banana almond eclair
- French canelรฉs
- Popcorn custard ball
- Ruby chocolate truffle
- Pistachio cannoli mille-feuille
- Madeleines
The savoury bites are tasty and satisfying. The sweet items are pretty varied (i.e. not mostly cakes) and the French canelรฉs are good. There is also a wide selection of tea to choose from and I really like the Muscat White tea, which is lightly fruity with a strong scent of honey. What an indulgent afternoon!
Comes with 2 drinks for each person. Top is sweet and bottom layer is savoury. Before the serve the tea set, there was this potato foam in a cup which is quite nice. There some hits and misses in the set. The best item would be the lobster choux.

We've been wanting to try Atlas' afternoon tea since forever but it's so difficult to get a reservation๐ฅบ. Really lucky we managed to book a slot a few months in advance๐! We really liked the pastries and desserts. Each had pretty unique flavour combinations that are different from the norm๐. Usually for afternoon tea sets, there would be some items that are misses for us. But for this, all the items were pretty good๐ฎ! Lovely selection of tea as well, we really enjoyed the Kukicha Green especially๐ต. We'll be trying to book their Christmas afternoon tea next, hopefully we'll succeed!๐
Finally fulfilled one of my birthday wishes of visiting the breathtakingly beautiful @atlasbarsg , and am soooo happy that we made it in time for their ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ผ๐๐ฉ๐๐ง๐ฃ๐ค๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐! ๐๐ ๐ป๐โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
TBH I didn't really have much expectations for the food here, but those little morsels were surprisingly delicious! ๐โค๏ธโค๏ธ
The only downside is that the service was far from stellar during our visit, and they seemed to be rather short-staffed, leaving guests stranded at the reception for quite some time (about 15min?) even after the designated booking time, then asked to take back the table 2 hours after the designated booking time. ๐ฅน Thankfully, they were kind enough to extend our table for 30min since I reallyyyyy wanted to try those famous ๐๐๐ง๐ฉ๐๐ฃ๐๐จ๐ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ, and I didn't want to down them all in 5 minutes without savouring the love and care that had been poured into each one.
And I have to say, if there's ONE thing you HAVE to try here, definitely go for the Cocktails/ Martinis/ Anything Gin! ๐ธโค๏ธ
A major throwback to July atย Atlas Bar with their over-subscribed Afternoon Tea set ($56 per person). There was a decent selection of pastries butย the sheer grandeur of the space certainly stole the show for me.ย Hence, my handful of favourites from theย two-tiered standย were the tangy-sweetย raspberry financier, citrusy madeleine, savoury pumpkin quiche, and the one-bite Lobster Crostini which came with a succulent topping and crunchy toasted base.
ATLAS never fails to makes me feel like Iโm a rich classy retired housewife. Its majestic interior draws me back again and again although it burns a hole in my pocket. Their bites are delightful as well, worth coming if you want to give yourself a treat!
